All students with Computer Science Linux Accounts who wish to
create and view webpages for their class must
perform the following steps to enable access:

1) From your home directory, type cd .. and hit
ENTER.

2) Chmod your home directory to 755 by typing "chmod 755 <home
directory> " (ex: chmod 755 03) with your home directory being
the last 2 digits of your Computer Science login and hit ENTER. (For example, a

3) Verify that you have changed the permissions on your directory by typing
"ls -l |more>" and hit ENTER. Your directory should display 755

index.htm file in your directory, this is required to view
webpages in your directory.

7) To create and run CGI scripts, you will need to create a
cgi-bin
directory within the public_html directory. Set the
permissions
on the cgi-bin directory to 755. All CGI scripts must be run
from this directory.
